As both a Frisco resident and Attorney:
If you are surprised by the Karmelo Anthony verdict or confused by it, please revisit the news sources you trust and consume.
We are often misled and tricked by the media. It feels like it has become part of their job to rile us up. To create emotional response. To divide us by political association, race, gender, orientation, etc. because it turns into clicks and more consumption of their content.
Look past these sources if they speak more about how you should feel about the “news” and not present the “news” as facts of what happened. Find the facts yourself by looking at multiple sources. Listen to the testimony and review the evidence. Make your own objective conclusions.
For example, the facts (in response to common misinformation) include:
1) The jury included numerous minorities, including Asian, Hispanic, and Middle-Eastern people;
2) Anthony’s attorney was a private, hired lawyer, not a public defender;
3) It was and is an unwritten rule that you are only permitted under a team tent if you are part of the team/school;
4) Anthony was not part of the team/school yet went and sat in the tent anyway;
5) Eyewitnesses, including black eyewitnesses, testified Anthony was told to leave the tent multiple times and he verbally refused;
6) Multiple eyewitnesses, including black eyewitnesses, testified that Karmelo was never surrounded/ganged up/jumped in that tent;
7) Multiple eyewitnesses, including black eyewitnesses, testified Anthony put his hand inside his backpack as though he was planning to retrieve a weapon during the verbal altercation;
8) The eyewitnesses, including black eyewitnesses, in the tent testified they jokingly said that they didn’t believe he had anything in the bag because he was in Frisco, Texas;
9) Eyewitnesses said AM told Anthony to leave or he would kick his a**;
10) Eyewitnesses testified that during the verbal exchange, Anthony said “touch me and find out.”
11) Eyewitnesses testified AM went over and pushed him to make him leave the tent.
12) Eyewitnesses testified AM did not punch Anthony or make any attempt to cause serious injury to him;
13) Anthony immediately pulled his knife and stabbed AM in the chest;
14) Anthony then threw the weapon into the stands and ran;
15) Anthony admitted the stabbing to the police;
16) Even the defense’s witnesses said Anthony was in the wrong.
You are free to make your own opinions about the case. But before jumping to conclusions, at least know the facts.
Time in Federal Government…
Alexander Hamilton: 5 years
George Washington: 8 years
Thomas Jefferson: 10 years
John Adams: 12 years
Bernie Sanders: 35 years
Nancy Pelosi: 39 years
Mitch McConnell: 41 years
Chuck Schumer: 45 years
It explains everything.
Founders vs Grifters
Can someone please explain to me how Democrats are able to show up by the tens of thousands overnight to protest Trump, yet need mail-in ballots to win?
So when Obama’s and Biden’s DOJ went after Trump, we were told ‘no one is above the law.’
But when Trump’s DOJ goes after Democrats, suddenly it’s called ‘weaponization of justice.’
Did I get that right?
Spirit Airlines died tonight at the hands of the socialist crusader, Elizabeth Warren
She must be so proud to add another casket to her achievements.
Tonight at 3am, Spirit turns off the lights. 14,000 jobs gone. 30+ smaller airports lose service.
JetBlue offered $3.8 BILLION in cash to buy Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, flight attendants union, literally everyone voted yes.
The combined company would have held 9% of the US market against a Big 4 that already owned 80%.
For anyone who understands numbers: 9% isn’t a monopoly against 80%.
Warren said no.
She wrote letters. She pressured Buttigieg. Biden’s DOJ sued. A federal judge killed the deal in January 2024.
Her argument: the merger would cost consumers $1 billion a year.
Now look at her collateral damage she dusts under the rug.
510 pilots gone in the months after. 1,800 flight attendants furloughed in December.
14,000 jobs in 2023. 7,500 last week. Zero tonight.
And that’s just the people in Spirit uniforms.
Catering goes. Fuel guys go. Baggage crews, gate agents, airport coffee shops, hotels and rental cars in 70 cities Spirit flew to. Every airline job carries 3 more on its back.
40,000 people out of work because of one woman’s moronic crusade against the market.
And the math ain’t mathing.
Spirit abandoned 90 routes during the death spiral. Fares on those routes are up 14% on average. Oakland to Newark: $135 to $288. Fort Myers to San Juan: $92 to $219. Kansas City to Newark up 66%.
That’s reality. Not some BS number from a “study.”
So @SenWarren tell me how this saves the consumer money?
Cheap carriers in a market drop fares 21% across the board. Southwest did this in the 90s and saved Americans $68 BILLION over 20 years.
Warren killed it. That’s what moronic politicians led by socialism do.
Then with her own blind arrogance, she tweeted Spirit’s collapse is “a Biden win for flyers.”
A win.
14,000 people are reading termination letters tonight.
And she’s taking credit.
This is socialism in 2026.
A senator who’s never made payroll thinks she knows how to run a market better than the people who own and work in the company.
She saved you a billion on imaginary paper.
She cost you ten times that in real life.
She didn’t protect consumers from anything.
14,000+ will go from working to welfare.
She will make sure to blame billionaires, hardworking tax payers, AI, capitalism and whatever monster they will make up tomorrow hiding under your bed.
Higher taxes. Fewer jobs. More expensive everything.
She called it a win. I hope you enjoy winning.
Greg Gutfeld just delivered the single most succinct and cutting indictment of the leftwing media's complicity in Saturday's WHCD attack:
"This guy did hear voices. They were Ted Lieu's, they were Brandon Johnson's, they were CNN's, they were The View, they were MS NOW."
"I think this is a helpful assassination attempt because it is the first one that shows you can be radicalized by liberal smugness."
"He wasn't a crank. He was not deranged. Don't buy into that narrative ... He was just following orders."
Greg nails it.
Kimmel’s hateful and violent rhetoric is intended to divide our country. His monologue about my family isn’t comedy- his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America.
People like Kimmel shouldn’t have the opportunity to enter our homes each evening to spread hate.
A coward, Kimmel hides behind ABC because he knows the network will keep running cover to protect him.
Enough is enough. It is time for ABC to take a stand. How many times will ABC’s leadership enable Kimmel’s atrocious behavior at the expense of our community.
Leftists have tried to kill the president three times now. They killed Charlie. They've shot up churches and Christian schools and rioted in the streets. They are the party of terrorism. Political violence comes from one side. How much longer will we allow these people to wage war on the country?
The research behind this is wild. Your sperm carries a set of instructions that tell your genes when to turn on and off. A Duke University study found that THC rewrites those instructions. The more weed in your system, the bigger the changes. It goes straight for the genes your future embryo needs in its first week of life.
I had to read the "day 3 crash" part twice. For the first three days after fertilization, an embryo runs entirely on the mother's DNA. Day 3, the father's genes switch on. If those genes carry cannabis damage, the embryo just stops growing. Fertility doctors see this happen in their labs: embryos that fertilized fine and looked healthy on day 2 go completely still by day 5.
Boston University tracked 1,535 couples trying to have a baby. Men who smoked weed once a week or more doubled their partner's miscarriage risk. That number held up even when the woman herself never touched cannabis. And the miscarriages clustered in the first 8 weeks, right when the father's damaged DNA would be doing the most harm.
Duke also found that the specific genes THC alters in sperm overlap with genes linked to autism. One of those genes, called DLGAP2, helps brain cells communicate with each other. It was changed in cannabis users' sperm. When researchers bred THC-exposed male rats and checked their offspring, the same altered gene pattern showed up in the pups' brains. The damage crossed a generation.
Weed has gotten way stronger over the last 30 years. THC content was about 4% in the 1990s but nearly quadrupled to 15% by 2018, and modern dispensary strains regularly sit at 20-30%. Concentrates go up to 95%.
Quitting for about 11 weeks (one full cycle of sperm production) reverses some of the DNA changes. Not all of them. Duke's lead researcher says men should stop at least 6 months before trying for a baby. Half of your kid's genetic blueprint comes from you, and right now, THC is editing that blueprint before conception even happens.
NATO is in far bigger danger than anyone realizes. And the reason has nothing to do with defense budgets.
The real danger is psychological. It’s cultural.
Europeans didn’t just free-ride on American security for 80 years. They built an entire identity around the idea that they evolved past the Americans protecting them.
That identity is now the single biggest obstacle to Western survival. And the darkest irony is: we helped build it.
After World War II, Europe wasn’t just economically shattered. Its culture was in ruins. The cities, the universities, the concert halls, the museums. Rubble.
The Marshall Plan rebuilt the economy. But culture wasn’t a priority. Not at first.
Then the Iron Curtain dropped. And suddenly culture became a weapon.
American diplomats, academics, artists & scholars flooded Western Europe. We funded their universities. Supported their orchestras. Rebuilt their museums. Promoted their intellectual life.
Not because European culture needed saving for its own sake.
Because Eastern Europeans were struggling for Maslow’s mist basic needs.
We needed the view from the other side of that Wall to be intoxicating.
So America built Western Europe into a showcase of self-actualization. Art. Philosophy. Cafe culture. Long vacations. Universities where people studied literature instead of surviving.
We were manufacturing jealousy.
And it worked. The Wall came down.
But here’s what no one accounted for.
When you give a society self-actualization on someone else’s tab long enough, they forget it was a gift. They start believing it was organically theirs.
And when they look at the country that funded it all, a country busy building aircraft carriers and semiconductor fabs and shale fields instead of reaching the Maslow’s pinnacle.
An overweight American in a ball cap who can’t tell Monet from Pissarro. Who eats fast food. Who drives a truck. Who builds strip malls instead of piazzas.
And to a culture trained in aesthetics but stripped of strategic awareness, that American looks uncivilized.
So the arrogance takes root. And once a culture decides another is beneath them, they stop listening.
Americans say wars are sometimes necessary: crude.
Oil is the backbone of prosperity: unsophisticated.
Kids build companies in garages that reshape the planet: crass.
Wall Street finances the global economy: vulgar.
Europe has no world-class technology sector. No military capable of strong defense. No energy independence. No AI capacity.
What Europe has is culture. The culture we paid for at the expense of us reaching Maslow’s pinnacle.
For decades that was fine. We funded the museums, protected the sea lanes, and tolerated the sneering because the arrangement worked.
Then Europeans stopped keeping the contempt private. They started saying it to our faces. In their media. In their parliaments. At every international forum. “Americans are stupid.
Americans are violent. Americans are a threat to democracy.”
We could have moved the Louvre to NY. We could have built a Venice here. We could have stolen your best artists, designers, philosophers and more… like your conquering armies did for centuries.
Instead we funded them. And all we asked for in return was to let us visit.
You don’t have the military to defend your borders. You don’t have the technology to compete. You don’t have the energy to heat your homes without begging dictators.
What you have is an 80-year superiority complex FUNDED BY AMERICANS, protected by American soldiers, and built on the false belief that self-actualization is civilization.
It isn’t. Civilization is the ability to sustain itself. By that measure, Europe isn’t a civilization at all. It’s a dependency with better wine.
That’s not a threat. It’s a weather report.
Build a Navy. Or don’t. But stop lecturing the people who made you “better than us”
Our “crudeness” our “stunted liberal education” our “ugly strip malls” are because we sacrificed our culture to support yours.
🔥 FBI Director Kash Patel absolutely TORCHES Adam Schiff in the Senate Judiciary hearing today, calling out the biggest fraud in the Senate for his lies on Russiagate and January 6:
Patel: “I am combating the weaponization of intelligence by the likes of YOU! We have constantly proven YOU to be a LIAR in Russiagate, J6... You are the BIGGEST FRAUD to ever sit in the United States Senate. You are a DISGRACE to this institution.”
Red Dawn had every kid in 1984 turning their neighborhood into a battlefield. Bikes, BB guns, forts… we weren’t scrolling, we were “at war” till the streetlights came on.
I’m 100% convinced that our national debt sits largely in two buckets:
Fraud
Illegal immigration
That’s it—solve those two things and we have a balanced budget.
I suspect our entire almost 40 trillion dollar national debt is due to fraud. I actually suspect the amount stolen from us is way higher. We are being robbed blind and absolutely nothing is done about it
Every US women’s soccer player who spent a decade lecturing all of us about how awful Trump was is silent now that women’s soccer players in Iran face death for speaking out in favor of basic human rights.
We now have evidence that gentle parenting doesn’t work.
Here’s an uncomfortable truth about parenting no one wants to say out loud:
The data is not kind to gentle parenting.
According to teenagers, strict curfews. strict bedtimes, screen limits, device drop off times, dedicated homework blocks, and sleepover restrictions IMPROVE higher relationship quality.
And yes, parenting difficulty goes up.
Of course it does. Leadership is harder than appeasement.
For the past decade we have been sold a watered down, Instagram friendly version of “gentle parenting” that often collapses into boundary avoidance, endless negotiation and emotional processing without enforcement. Parents terrified of saying no because they do not want to rupture connection.
But connection without authority is not connection. It is dependency.
When parents impose structure, the relationship improves.
Teenagers report better parent child relationship quality in homes with curfews and rules. Younger kids report better relationships in homes with screen limits and bedtimes. Even device drop off times correlate positively.
Why?
Because structure is not cruelty. Structure is love made visible.
A bedtime says: your brain matters more than your entertainment.
A screen limit says: your dopamine system is not fully developed and I will guard it until it is.
A curfew says: your safety matters more than your social standing.
That is not authoritarianism. That is caring.
Boundaries create friction. Friction creates growth. The parent absorbs the short term discomfort so the child does not pay the long term cost.
Children do not experience well calibrated limits as rejection. They experience them as stability. The human brain craves predictability. Predictability reduces anxiety. Reduced anxiety strengthens attachment.
That is why relationship quality goes up.
Notice something else in the data. The strongest effects are around time structure. Bedtime. Homework. Devices. Outside play. These are environmental constraints. They scaffold executive function.
The winning formula is not tyranny.
It is high warmth plus high structure.
The modern failure mode is high warmth plus low structure. That is just abdication of responsibility wrapped in empathy.
Children need leadership, not negotiation. They need adults who can tolerate their anger. They need boundaries that do not move every time emotions spike. They need someone whose prefrontal cortex is fully myelinated.
The harder path produces the stronger bond.
Because when a child feels that someone is strong enough to hold the line, they relax. And relaxed nervous systems build durable relationships.
Elon Musk just said what no economist will: the entire system is about to break and nothing can stop it.
AI and robotics aren’t generating growth. They’re destroying the scarcity framework economics depends on.
Musk: “It will hit us like a supersonic tsunami.”
Production compounds exponentially. Money supply grows linearly. Productivity sustaining permanent double-digit expansion. Numbers that sound impossible becoming baseline.
Not evolution. Replacement.
Musk: “Prices collapse hard.”
Not decline. Implosion. AI strips out labor costs, eliminates production errors, removes every inefficiency keeping goods expensive. Manufacturing anything approaches zero marginal cost while quality accelerates.
Governments will react on instinct. Print money. Inject stimulus. Playbook designed for scarcity economies colliding with abundance they have no framework to understand.
Musk: “GDP metrics are already meaningless.”
Every economic model assumes constrained labor, limited output, gradual improvement. AI doesn’t work within those boundaries. It deletes them as variables.
Production explodes. Central banks flood liquidity. Prices collapse regardless because physical abundance scales faster than any monetary intervention can match.
The production wave outruns policy response. Always.
Deflation signals crisis in every historical model. But this isn’t demand collapse. It’s supply going infinite.
The economy isn’t failing. It’s transforming beyond tools built to measure scarcity.
Power belongs to whoever controls the systems generating unlimited output. Money becomes secondary when production costs vanish. Policy makers are steering with instruments calibrated for limits that stopped existing.
This already started. And the people running things have zero answers for what happens when their entire profession becomes obsolete overnight.
🚨 JUST IN: In Germany, Sec. Marco Rubio goes HARD against the globalists, scathing the United Nations for being utterly useless
"We no longer place the so-called 'global order' above the vital interests of OUR people and our nations!"
"We cannot ignore that today, on the most pressing matters before us, it has NO answers and has played virtually NO role!"
"It could not solve the war in Gaza. Instead, it was American leadership that freed captives from barbarians and brought about a fragile truce. It has not solved the war in Ukraine. It took American leadership in partnership with many of the countries here today just to bring the two sides to the table in search of a still-elusive peace."
"It was powerless to constrain the nuclear program of radical Shia clerics in Tehran. That required 14 bombs dropped with precision from American B-2 bombers."
"And it was unable to address the threat to our security from a narco-terrorist dictator in Venezuela. Instead, it took American special forces to bring this fugitive to justice."
"In a perfect world, all of these problems and more would be solved by diplomats and strongly worded resolutions. But we do not live in a perfect world."
"And we cannot continue to allow those who blatantly and openly threaten our citizens and endanger our global stability to shield themselves behind abstractions of international law which they themselves routinely violate."
"This is the path that President Trump and the United States has embarked upon. It is the path we ask you here in Europe to join us on. It is the path we have walked together before and hope to walk together again."
Boom.
